Depending on where you live, and what you preordered, you’ll be able to get your hands on a PlayStation Vita in either just over a day, or just over a week. But what will you do once you’ve played Uncharted, WipEout and ModNation? Luckily Sony has a bunch of Vita games coming soon, including Resistance: Burning Skies.

Burning Skies releases on May 29th in the US, and the 30th in Europe, with Sony claiming that the game is “the world’s first portable dual-analog FPS”. In the game you control firefighter-turned-alien-masher Tom Riley as he fights the Chimeran invasion of the US East Coast in August 1951.

Sadly, this could very well be the last Resistance game, now that franchise-founder Insomniac Games has left the series. If it is the final Resistance, let’s just hope the game goes out with a bang.
